Pain, whether physical or emotional, is a part of life. As humans we are wired to act quickly on these warning signals to get out of pain as quickly as possible. However, some of the actions we take to reduce or eliminate pain in the short term can actually make the pain worse in the long term. In this episode, Daniel and Tana discuss how some quick fixes, such as certain painkillers, act on the brain and body, and how other interventions, such as EMDR therapy, address the root cause to keep pain away for good.
